Personal Information and Preferences

After you enroll, we’ll ask you to provide or update your personal information and preferences, which includes your health information, lodging and meal preferences for your program.

Three forms are required prior to the group starting: medical release, health history and participant acknowledgement of risk form. Chincoteague Bay Field Station, the entity that will provide programing during your trip, is required by its insurance carrier to obtain a signed liability release waiver from all program participants. Participants must sign the Chincoteague Bay Field Station’s liability waiver prior to participating in the program activity. This waiver will be included in the program preparatory materials participants will receive after enrolling in the program and must be returned prior to the program’s commencement. Bring photo Real ID or passport (required to visit the NASA base on Wallops Island). Foreign Nationals must complete additional paperwork at least 6 weeks in advance to be allowed access onto the base. Access is then subject to approval by NASA Wallops Island base and may be denied if NASA does not have an escort available for the trip. If access is denied, the participant will still be able to take part in all other aspects of the program.

Visas

United States citizens don’t need a visa for any of the countries you’ll be visiting. Non-U.S. citizens should refer to their country's requirements to ensure they have the necessary documentation for travel.
